Profile Information

Dear
Reader,

There isn't much that needs to be known about me, really
there isn't. I'm just a small-town girl writing about things that
spark my interest. Whether it be about a boy, a song, or just a
simple bird that I saw fly by, I can't help but write
something!

Certain things that I write, or have written, have
to do with boys. Other's with friends. Most commonly, a little
fantasy I've dreamt up in some sleep or while I'm listening to a
song from a movie soundtrack. I'm a girl of the arts, what can I
say? Nothing. I can't say anything. I love everything and
anything having to do with being able to paint a picture whether
physically or mentally. Those, after all, are the best pictures,
right?

The only thing that I wish, is that I could read
better. I can't read to save my life, so I don't know how I am
writing things. I guess it's a talent? Or a curse? Well, I have
yet to decide. I can't really see, either, so I suppose that
answers that.

I am a movie nerd. Not a small nerd, but more like, "Oh my
G_d , Harry Potter is coming out in 3D I have to get tickets for
the midnight showing right now! And, I need to get a costume and
a wand and some Bertie Botts beans!"... Yeah, that's me. I
am a nerd unlike any other. I play Xbox 360, no you don't get my
gamer tag, it's just a fun fact.

Random little fact: If a boy were to really make me happy
on a date, he would take me to some place with sushi, then take
me to a movie-- I don't care what movie, just a movie-- and then
we would go to his house and play Assassins Creed or Kingdom
Hearts. Fun, right?

The books I like are very few. I'm
rather selective when picking out what I want
to read. Let's begin. I only like a maximum of twenty wrters. No,
scratch that, I only love a maximum of twenty
writers. I can list a few for you: William Shakespeare, Kurt
Vonnegut, Lemony Snicket, Frank Beddor, Ernest Hemingway,
F. Scott Fitzgerald, Nathaniel Hawthorne, M.T. Anderson, and a
few more. I admire them all for a range of different reasons.
Shakespeare for romance. Vonnegut for humor. Snicket for his wit.
Beddor for his imagination. Hemmingway and Fitzgerald for their
visions. Hawthorne for his power. M.T Anderson for future within
a fictional story.

Like all writers, you begin to see the world in a different
light as life starts to throw you curve balls. Sometimes, that
light is darker than anything in your world, but you have to work
with it. At times the world may seem like a dark and sinister
place, but trust me when I say that there is much more good in it
than bad. All you have to do, is look hard enough. {I have to
trust myself with this sometimes because there are days when
I don't even believe myself...}. One of the authors listed above
wrote that in a book, maybe you've heard of it? The
Serious of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket?
Classic read, I recommend it greatly. Secretly, I like when
I don't believe that the world is as good as some people say.
When you don't believe everything that you hear is when your best
work comes out of you. When you're fighting forces is when
your angstiest writing becomes tear-jerking and meaningful. When
your mind has nothing but horrific visions, is when your stories
gain the darkest, yet most creative, twists. And, when your heart
is torn in two with no one to stitch up the pieces, is when your
literature tells a story of its own just from the title. Silly,
isn't it? My little thoughts on the darkness around us.

I always used to think that I was like this girl,
Harper, from this play Angels in America... As I grew
throughout the year, I learned how true that really is...
Sometimes, it scares people, the things I think when I'm alone
inside my head, but I am okay with that because that means that I
have a voice of my own, thoughts of my own that create things I
enjoy creating-- literature for people to read and
enjoy.

On a lighter note of this letter to you, my dear reader, I
am now a college student. I can't believe life comes at you that
fast. Interesting. Honestly, when people say to, "take a moment
and hold it," Do it. Because, you never know when you will wake
up one morning and suddenly you're no longer eight, but eighteen,
driving yourself to work and school, about to start your future
someplace out in the world. Despite everything that happens,
never forget to keep moving forward because we are curious to the
open doors around us, and they will only stay open for so long
before fate moves us to a new door with a new path and a new
adventure.

Love
Always,

Taea
